>What makes a vtuber?
The exact definition is fuzzy, but there are a few key factors that are shared among the vast majority, and that most agree with.

1- The vtuber must identify themselves as such
2-The vtuber is a character being played as if they were a living, real entity 24/7 in all social platforms they use.
3-There is some degree of interaction between the vtuber and the audience besides just watching the show.
4- The Vtuber utilizes an animated avatar rigged to the performer's face without showing traces of the performer's face

These 4 key aspects are the essence of what being a vtuber is.
All universaly accepted vtubers share these qualities, sometimes bending but never breaking the rules.


The Annoying Orange fails to comply with any of these basic characteristics from all vtubers.

1- Annoying Orange has never, not even once, referred to themselves as a vtuber, neither by the character or by the creators of the show

2- There is no suspension of disbelief in pretending that Annoying Orange is a real entity living in real time. It doesn't have schedules, social media dedicated specifically to its characters, etc. It exists solely in the confines of the show

3- There is no sort of interaction between any of the Annoying Orange characters and its audience. It's literally a show or series of videos you watch.

4- The annoying orange almost complies to this except for a few details. The performer isn't using any sort of facerig but rather super imposing his facial features into an orange. There is no animation at play. It's also not concealing said facial features in any way.

That's 0/4.
Dear orangeposters. Just because something is an animated character on the internet performed by people, doesn't mean it is a VTuber.
Get the fuck out of this board with your off topic autism.

To the mods, there is no reason for the orange posts to be allowed. The Annoying Orange is not a vtuber.

Have a lovely day
